Spiritual Momentum

Reading of the Day: Joshua 12-14

Joshua 14:11: As yet I am as strong this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now, for war, both to go out, and to come in.

Our strength can only get us so far. We run out of steam pretty easily when we rely on our own abilities...especially now! I look at my children & wonder how they have so much energy! Lol...but we can use Caleb as a great example of how to keep a Spiritual momentum going which in turn keeps us motivated to keep moving! It's an inner strength that we might miss out on if we are not fixed & focused on the things of God! Caleb admitted he was getting older, but he also admitted he had some fight left in him! He said he was as strong in that day as he was when Moses first sent him out as a spy...so strong that he could go to war & keep the good fight of faith going! When we are strong in The Lord, we move from strength to strength! That Spiritual strength stretches throughout our being & gives us some physical, emotional & mental strength as well! Soon, we not only feel like we could take a few more steps...we feel like we could take a mountain, just like Caleb! Joshua 14:12: "Now therefore give me this mountain, whereof the LORD spake in that day; for thou heardest in that day how the Anakims were there, and that the cities were great and fenced: if so be the LORD will be with me, then I shall be able to drive them out, as the LORD said." When we repent, get baptized in Jesus' Name through immersion in water & receive the Holy Ghost with evidence of speaking in new tongues, we have a new life on earth and in Heaven & His Spirit is in us which gives us access to this great Spiritual momentum! Again, we move from strength to strength...it just keeps on building! Psalm 84:7: "They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God." And who knows, Scripture says we must become like little children in our faith, so maybe we will gain back some of that child-like energy too! Lol. But either way, we will continue to build upon our strength, gaining Spiritual momentum manifested in our everyday lives! Everyone will want to know the secret, and as the strength builds, the excitement builds to tell them all about it!
